Tim and Eric Whipped Out The Classics For Their ‘Awesome Show, Great Job!’ 10 Year Anniversary Special

Comedians Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim (Master of None), who rose to fame nearly a decade ago with their now-retired Adult Swim series Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!, recently announced that they would return for a one-off special to celebrate the wacky show’s 10-year anniversary. Eager fans didn’t quite know what to expect, but the duo succeeded by whipping out a number of their classic skits that have always worked so well. The episode aired on Sunday, August 26 and is currently available to stream for free without a login via adultswim.com.

If you’ve seen the special, you were treated to skits involving Casey and his brother, Steve Mahanahan’s child clowns, Lindsey Porch & Ruth Carr’s Song Legends Karaoke, Spaghett!, and Diarrhea Jones. Not to mention special guest appearances from Will Forte’s depressive character Will Grello and John C. Reilly’s lovable goof Dr. Steve Brule. Viewers were even treated to a special segment about the late Richard Dunn which featured a child dressed as Richard Dunn, named Richard Son (aka “Son of a Dunn”).

Heidecker and Wareheim also kept it fresh by throwing in some new skits like the Teeny Weeny Lamborghini bit and a brand new central theme involving Tim’s Tae Kwon Doo brown belt ceremony and Eric’s Tai Chish demonstration, which are scheduled to take place on the same day. The two hosts frantically petition their group of friends to get them to agree to come to their event over the other’s, with both friends giving in and rescheduling their events in the end.

Seriously though, with how good this special was, it seems unfathomable that Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! would ever get stale so we hope that the duo continues to produce further installations. Until then, however, you can certainly check out the pair’s current joint Adult Swim series Tim & Eric’s Bedtime Stories or Heidecker’s solo series Decker, both of which seem to fall within the same comedy niche. Just keep in mind though, at least this writer has found, that it’s a very unique niche and it takes a certain kind of viewer to really appreciate their special brand of out-there humor.
